What People are Saying About Us:

Excellent

Richard represented me during my divorce and did an exceptional job informing me if all my options and representing me through the proceedings. Six months after the divorce was finalized, I needed to have a letter drafted about the settlement agreement. He did this for me the same day and free of charge. Not only is he knowledgeable and trustworthy, he provides first class customer service!
Thank you Rick!
